You may be wondering which iPods have Bluetooth capability.

The short answer is that all of the latest iPod models have Bluetooth capability. This includes the iPod Touch and iPod Nano. If you have an older model iPod, you may be out of luck regarding Bluetooth capability.

In this blog post, I will discuss which iPods have Bluetooth capability and what that means for your listening experience.

Which iPods Have Bluetooth Capability

The following iPod models have Bluetooth capability:

iPod Touch

The iPod Touch started supporting Bluetooth from the 2nd generation with ioS 3.0. The iPod touch has Airdrop and Handoff support as of the release of ioS 11. iPod touch 2, 3, and 4 have Bluetooth 2.1 + EDR, while iPod touch 5 and 6 have 4.0.

The iPod Nano also started supporting Bluetooth from the renewed seventh generation. The latest model, the iPod nano (PRODUCT) RED Special Edition, has Bluetooth built-in.

What Does Bluetooth Capability Mean for Your Listening Experience?

The Bluetooth capability has many benefits for users. These include:

Wireless Listening

You can now listen to music and podcasts wirelessly. This means no more getting tangled up in cords. You can also connect your iPod to wireless speakers to enjoy your music out loud.

Improved Sound Quality

Bluetooth technology has come a long way in recent years. The sound quality of Bluetooth-enabled iPods is now much improved.

How to Use Bluetooth on Your iPod

If you want to use Bluetooth on your iPod, you will need to have a compatible Bluetooth device. This could be a Bluetooth headset, car stereo, or wireless speaker. Follow these steps to pair your iPod with a Bluetooth device:

• Turn on your iPod and the Bluetooth device you want to pair it with.
• Make sure that both devices are within range of each other.
• On your iPod, go to Settings > Bluetooth and turn on Bluetooth.
• Your iPod will now search for available Bluetooth devices.
• Once it finds the device that you want to pair with, select it.
• You may be prompted to enter a passcode on both devices. If so, enter the same passcode on both devices.
• Your iPod and the Bluetooth device are now paired, and you can start using them together.

Tips for Troubleshooting Problems with Connecting iPods and other Bluetooth Devices

If you are having trouble pairing your iPod with a Bluetooth device, here are some tips to try:

Restart Both Devices

The first thing you should try is restarting both the iPod and the Bluetooth device. This can often fix minor connection issues. When you restart your devices, make sure that Bluetooth is turned on.

Check the Battery Level

If either the iPod or Bluetooth device has a low battery, it can cause problems with the connection. Make sure that both devices have enough power before trying to connect them again.

Make Sure Both Devices are in Range

Another common problem is that one or both devices are not in range of each other. Ensure that both devices are within 30 feet of each other to ensure a good connection.

Check for Interference

Bluetooth signals can be interfered with by other electronic devices. If you are having trouble connecting, try moving the iPod and the Bluetooth device away from any electronic devices.

Reset Network Settings

If you are still having trouble connecting your iPod to a Bluetooth device, you can try resetting your network settings. To do this, go to Settings > General > Reset and select Reset Network Settings. This will not delete any of your data, but it will reset all of your network settings.

Trying Connecting to a Different Device

You can also try connecting your iPod to a different Bluetooth device. This will help you determine if the problem is with the iPod or with the other device.

Ways of Using Bluetooth on the iPod Shuffle

Many of the older iPods and iPod Shuffle do not have Bluetooth capability. However, there are still ways that you can use Bluetooth with these devices.

Third-Party Bluetooth Adapter

One option is to buy a third-party Bluetooth adapter. These adapters plug into your iPod’s headphone jack and allow you to connect to Bluetooth devices. A few different brands make these adapters, so be sure to do your research before purchasing one.

FM Transmitter

Another option is to use an FM transmitter. These devices plug into your iPod and send an FM signal that can be picked up by any FM radio. You can then listen to your iPod through the radio. This is a great option if you want to listen to your iPod in the car.

I am looking at buying the latest iPod nano, I don’t like the standard cable headphones, they get in the way, fall out, get tangled and get pulled out of your ears.

the latest iPod nano hasnt Bluetooth. You can buy a Bluetooth Earphones pack with earphones and a Bluetooth transmitter. 🙂

i10s Bluetooth adapter ($45) — Since the iPod nano 6G doesn’t have Bluetooth, a dongle is your only option. While dozens of choices exist, the i10s BT adapter is the smallest of the lot. When you’re rocking the world’s smallest iPod, you don’t want a big horsey adapter jutting out of the side. At about two-thirds the size of Sony’s BT adapter, the i10s is the perfect fit. The i10s is zero-config and auto-pairs when it’s powered up.

I have a sony bluetooth adapter attached to my ipod nano 6th gen and am trying to pair to a set of lg hbs-700 headset. Since neither receiver nor headset has a bluetooth menu, how do I pair the 2? I’ve attached the sony to my ipod and then placed the hbs-700s in pairing mode, but the headset just times out and turns off without pairing. How can I pair the 2 with no menu on either device? Thanks in advance for any help.
